Moonlighting Behavior among Migrants : Determinants and Implications for Wellbeing in South Africa

Notwithstanding the wealth of research on migration and subjective wellbeing, the issue of moonlighting and its welfare implication among migrants has not been thoroughly explored in empirical literature. Using rich individual-level panel data from the University of Cape Town’s National Income Dynamics Study (NIDS), this study established a number of interesting findings: (a) there is moonlighting

When Institutional Logics Collide: How International Firms Navigate Sustainability Values in Global Markets

This book chapter takes an institutional perspective on competing logics in global markets concerned with sustainability values and how market actors in the form of buyers and sellers attempt to solve these conflicting situations. We do this by identifying competing institutional logics in global market contexts aiming for sustainability values, together with techniques for navigating these compet

Aging Hematopoiesis: Functional Insights and Prospects for Rejuvenation

Aging exerts profound effects on the hematopoietic system, leading to a loss of homeostatic control and reduced regenerative capacity. Clinical consequences of these changes include anemia, compromised immune function and an increased prevalence of myeloid disorders among the elderlies. A growing body of evidence suggests that defects at the stem and progenitor cell levels contribute to many of th

V-ir-Net : A Novel Neural Network for Pupil and Corneal Reflection Detection trained on Simulated Light Distributions

Deep learning has shown promise for gaze estimation in Virtual Reality (VR) and other head-mounted applications, but such models are hard to train due to lack of available data. Here we introduce a novel method to train neural networks for gaze estimation using synthetic images that model the light distributions captured in a P-CR setup. We tested our model on a dataset of real eye images from a V

Differential cryptanalysis of Mod-2/Mod-3 constructions of binary weak PRFs

Pseudo-random functions are a fundamental building block in many cryptographic applications. In certain scenarios, a weaker notion (where security is restricted to uniformly random input), but more computationally efficient, called weak pseudo-random functions, is sufficient. In this work, we present new differential attacks on the main binary weak pseudo-random function constructions, namely the

Characterization of Carotid Atherosclerotic Stenosis on Photon-Counting Computed Tomography

Stroke är när patienten får en blödning eller blodpropp i hjärnan som kan orsaka tal och rörelsebortfall, och i värsta fall en plötslig död. Åderförkalkning i halskärlen orsakar kring 10%−20% av alla stroke-fall. Den nuvarande metoden som används för att bedöma åderförkalkningen är att mäta förträngningen av blodkärlet i skiktröntgenbilder (3D-röntgenbilder). Förträngning av blodkärlet säger ingenIntroduction and aim Atherosclerotic stenosis located at the carotid bifurcation accounts for 10% − 20% of all Transient Ischemic Attacks (TIA) and ischemic strokes, which occurs when Atherosclerotic stenosis, or so-called plaque, ruptures. The current method to evaluate carotid atherosclerotic stenosis is to measure the degree of stenosis. Strong markers for plaque rupture lies in the plaque cont

Second Timothy : When and Where? Text and Traditions in the Subscriptions

Baserat på fullständiga sammanställningar av subskriptionerne på 2 Timoteusbrevet i 485 grekiska manuskript, presenterar denna studie texttraditionen och utvecklingen av dessa subskriptioner och förklarar deras förhållande till andra subskriptioner, paratexter, de interna material i 1–2 Timoteus, Apostlagärningarna och det bredare. kyrkohistoria. Studien spårar källan/källorna bakom traditionen atBased on full collations of the subscriptions to 2 Timothy in 485 Greek manuscripts, this study presents the textual tradition and development of these subscriptions and explains their relationship to other subscriptions, paratexts, the internal evidence in 1–2 Timothy, Acts, and the wider church history. The study tracks the source(s) behind the tradition that the letter was sent to Timothy, inst

The Undertext of Greek NF MG 99 from Sinai (GA 0289)

Despite having been included in critical editions since NA 27, an edition with the full text of Sinai Greek NF MG/ΜΓ 99 (GA 0289) has not been published until now. The Greek undertext of the palimpsest, written in biblical majuscule, was provisionally dated in the Kurzgefaßte Liste to VII/VIII (600–799 CE) but has now been redated by Guglielmo Cavallo to the fifth century. The present edition, bas

Resan till månen

David Dunér skriver om imaginära resor till månen och mänskliga föreställningar om liv i rymden. I samma stund som vi blickar upp mot natthimlen och undrar om det kan finnas liv där bland stjärnorna, kanske det finns varelser på en främmande planet som undrar om vi existerar. Tanken om att vi sannolikt inte är ensamma i världsrymden växte fram på 1600-talet.

Everywhere but in the Strike Statistics? : Wage Systems and Work Stoppages in Sweden, 1863-1927

To what extent did employers' attempts to control work processes and increase work intensity by introducing new wage systems lead to labour conflicts in the decades around 1900? I adress this question by combining two approaches. Firstly, by reviewing newly digitized micro-level data on work stoppages in Sweden from 1863 to 1927. Secondly, by compiling case-study evidence on work processes and ind

Finding Small Complete Subgraphs Efficiently

(I) We revisit the algorithmic problem of finding all triangles in a graph G= (V, E) with n vertices and m edges. According to a result of Chiba and Nishizeki (1985), this task can be achieved by a combinatorial algorithm running in O(mα) = O(m3 / 2) time, where α= α(G) is the graph arboricity. We provide a new very simple combinatorial algorithm for finding all triangles in a graph and show that

From Epistemic Norms to Logical Rules : Epistemic Models for Logical Expressivists

In this paper I construct a system of semantics for classical and intuitionistic propositional logic based on epistemic norms governing belief expansion. Working in the AGM-framework of belief change, I give a generalisation of Gärdenfors’ notion of belief systems which can be defined without reference to a logical consequence operator by using a version of the Ramsey Test. These belief expansion

Smoking and secondary ACL rupture are detrimental to knee health post ACL injury-a Bayesian analysis

PURPOSE: To identify potential prognostic factors for patient-reported outcomes in an Icelandic cohort of ACL injured subjects.METHODS: All knee MRI reports written in Iceland between the years 2001 to 2011 were read to identify individuals with a possible ACL injury. These individuals were contacted and asked to complete an online questionnaire regarding their injury and current knee related heal
